Sparked by the encouragement of both his mother and father to explore the forest and waterways while on family camping trips to the Door Peninsula of northeastern Wisconsin.

His goal is to illuminate through the medium of photography, using both traditional and non-traditional techniques both the power and mystery of the natural world. He simply feels blessed to be a witness to the light.
